Found it interesting that Kitt Harrington, Emilia Clarke, Sophie Turner and Alfie Allen all had shows come out in early 2026 where they are all huge or the main parts of:
I’m currently bingeing through the latest season of Industry where this is now the second season Kitt appeared in. What an awesome show that tuned out to be.
Emelia Clark was the co-lead in Ponies which I thought was a pretty fun show about two women going undercover in Soviet Russia.
Sophie Turner was the lead in Steal on Amazon prime. Was about a thriller about a corporate heist and the investigation after. Honestly thought a bit too cheesy, not my favorite.
Alfie Allen (Theon) was the lead in Girl Taken on Paramount+. Was based on a book about a kidnapping of a child. This actually was better than I thought it would be. Thought Allen and the captive girls acting were both real strong.
Cool to see them all getting their moments to shine not in Westeros
Some of the ones who got out of the show by being killed off at its peak were able to really capitalize on it.
Pedro Pascal and Jason Momoa are A-listers now.

During GOT’s run I was a big advocate of Richard Madden as the next Bond. Still am, really.

He would be wonderful. To me, BODYGUARD proved that. But if there is one Scot I am pushing for it's Jack Lowden.

I mean yeah I do find it interesting that in pretty much a month span the four actors above all had their own shows come out. Funny timing to me but also says something about the success of Thrones leading to future endeavors for them all there

Kitt has had his chances and doesn't really stand out.
